  1. ​ @parrotcraft7503  Out of the 250,000 in the bodycount project only 8,000 were by the US-Iraq war. The rest were majorily a consequence of sectarian violence. Please understand the numbers you are quoting. The 250,000 fatalities attributed to Operation Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom are not all caused by the US. They're all fatalites, no matter who caused them. Even if it was Iraqis doing it.

  2. ​ @dmitryletov8138  The Lancet study has been criticized by several scientists as it couldn't be replicated and used an unreliable method by extrapolating from interviews. The study published in the Lancet didn't actually do a bodycount, the researchers did a sample of people and asked them questions.

  3. There's a video of an old man in Maripol saying Azov were "super" after saving them from Russian troops.

  4. Most of the population is near the coasts because of increased economic activity. People go where the jobs are.

  5. Accountable for what? Being smart? The option was disbanding the group and them going underground, or the Azov members gaining political power. They picked the third option which was outsmart Azov, make them part of the armed forces so that the political leaders have to quit. They lost the elections and the military purged the top Azov guys. They are smarter than their critics, who didn't understand the political chess.

  6. Nobody said it was a conspiracy. Conspiracy is what you said after not taking your meds. So take the meds.

  7. They don't. They replaced the symbol by three daggers or three slashes.

  8. ​ @dmitryletov8138  20 years to pacify after quickly winning the war. The US wins the war easily, but loses the peace.

  9. ​ @h3w45  Triggered by the Z letter? His name is Zelensky, snowflake.

  10. The US was assisting South Vietnam, also Vietnam invaded Cambodia, Iraq was rebuilt and helped when ISIS came, Afghanistan was given a democratic government thrown away by corruption, the Serbs were comitting genocide in Kosovo, Syria and Libya have/had madmen leaders who show no mercy to their own people.

  11. ​ @baniSaqer  They were Russian speakers from Kharkiv. Metalist FC ultras.

  12. Because the USSR and PRC were on their side. Same reason the US defended South Vietnam but didn't invade the North.

  13. You only know half the stuff about the US because the FBI and CIA declassify tons of stuff. Meanwhile after 2011-2013 Russia even closed the WW2 archives to Western historians. We can't look at WW2 history from the Soviet side because... Russian citizens protested a rigged election and Putin blamed the West.

  14. Israel actually refused to support Ukraine because they're friendly with Russia. They only supported Ukraine because Russia supports Iran and Hamas.

  15. ​ @Mcgee833  It was because Russia is friends with Iran which backs Hamas which attacked Israeli civilians in a gruesome attack.

  16. Strelkov was a FSB asset. He was working for the Russian government. The problem is that they thought Ukrainians were weak but once they pushed back Russia could not flood them with weapons and ammo without getting caught. Part of the "success" of the Donbas operation was that most of the world didn't care about the US presenting the hard evidence of Russian intervention. Had Russia actually given them the entire support they asked, the EU could have been persuaded into boosting Ukrainian capabilities.

  17. It's fitting? Mariupol is on the coastline with the Azov sea. They used to be stationed in Mariupol and are known for defending the city when Russia attacked in 2015. It's a perfectly fitting name.

  18. ​ @SebHaarfagre  Yes, it did. The bombing of WTC in 1993, the attack against US troops in Beirut, the attacks on embassies, not to mention the hijackings from previous decades set the tone for the post-Soviet collapse as an age where fighting terror would be the focus.

  19. ​ @wert7773  Chechen volunteers largely did not exist. Uzbek volunteers did serve in Afghanistan but the Russian FSB spread the rumor of Chechen involvement to get the US to support the second Chechen war.

  20. The baseless conspiracy isn't about the existence of the unit, but the portrayal as some kind of SS unit rather than a national guard regiment protecting Mariupol (in Russian-speaking Eastern Ukraine).

  21. Not true. He was going to sign the deal with the EU but Putin forced him to cancel the plans by sanctioning Ukrainian goods. With Ukraine's economy held hostage he was forced to blow off the EU. There could be no middle ground because once you enter EU space you can't have a porous border with Russia. That's a fantasy. It's like the Brexit and the Northern Ireland border with Ireland, the UK leaving the EU creates a situation where NI could create an uncontrolled entry point into the EU. Easing up border control for Ukrainian goods would let Russia funnel goods into the EU without getting caught if such a "middle ground" existed.

  22. Zelensky only tried to join NATO when Russia massed troops at the border. Zelensky tried everything to get Putin to stop but the demands were basically to shut down the entire army. A robber breaks into your house, and promises to leave if you remove the locks from your door. Exactly how would you trust him to simply not open your door tomorrow night?

  23. They tried to get him back multiple times.

  24. ​ @Madmaxxxx1984  The US did not invade Cuba in the Bay of Pigs. Cuban dissidents with support from the US invaded Cuba to counter-coup the Castro revolutionary government.

  25. The US has allies South Korea and Japan nearby, and it has the recon satellites to get up to date information.
